The eleven surreal portrait masks in this edition are just a few among many, many...

These images are from the In Focus exhibition at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art. In Focus is a twelve week digital photography program with an emphasis on portraiture and self image that I taught this spring. The program participants were 28 adolescent girls from the Girls Inc. organization and they made some fabulous work. The exhibition includes this video of many of the girls.

So, this article describes how the successional anthropological methods were applied for the identification of Benvenuto Cellini's portraits. Objective comparison of facial parameters was used for a scientific method of face-biometrical identification. For purposes of biometric identification of Benvenuto Cellini's...

Photo-artist Jordan McAfee's narrative portraits are the result of a creative collaboration between McAfee and performance artist, Shane, who stage their stories in unlikely but evocative spaces - rooftops, abandoned buildings, biker bars. These are atmospheric and allusive works, often dark, sometimes comic, about loneliness, gender, identity, the fluidity of transformation, and the tragedy of the human condition.

Media literacy educators talk about the importance of developing essential social skills, such as collaboration, by using video production in the classroom.

This paper offers an account of a media literacy intervention that involved making videos with a class of foster youth. Using the methodology of portraiture, I describe highlights and...

The purpose of this study was to assess children's images of scientists by using the Draw-A-Scientist Test (DAST) and to determine if differences in these images exist between grade levels.

Findings obtained from the study revealed that, in general, children possess stereotypical views of scientists using the DAST with their drawings displaying fewer indicators of the...

An autobiographical portrait is an artistic representation that shows not only a person's physical characteristics, but also his or her personality, knowledge, history, and/or lived experiences. Understanding student autobiographical portraits not only helps art teachers gain insight into their students' prior knowledge of and experiences with art, but also allows them to use such insight for relevant instruction. Based on constructivist learning theory and with attention to the future...
